His WRC appearances this year have been on par with what he expected I believe. Silly retirements here and there etc. He's been on the same pace as Raikkonen a number of times - and he's doing a full season in a VERY works car.

I'd like to add myself to the list of people who used the screw driver as the jack handle before realising where it actually was

She had reasonable impact protection too, but just located south of the eventual impact point.

Imy you could try adding them to a playlist and marking that playlist to be synced to the phone. Will check it out later on tonight!

The character is copyrighted - but he's writing the book as himself about his time being employed to play said character. What's to stop Harrison Ford writing a book about playing Han Solo? Nothing! In both cases they'd simply be stating the facts.

I think the old 2 litre (05 and before) said 97 min, but I'm not quite sure.

Followed everyone's favourite chinese restauranteur through it on a Santa Cruise one year when he had that on. It was all kinds of wonderful.

Richie - find a scrappy and see if you can get a wheel off a wrecked Scenic - just to keep as your "space saver". Just stick it in the garage or wherever. Better than nothing.

I find it quite strange they're doing odds on a new Stig - surely the whole point of getting a new one would be that no one would know who they were anyway? I say keep Collins - the man's just writing a book about playing a great character. He can still play said character afterwards!

They should just keep Collins. The stig is a character, he is an actor playing a character.

I think I had so much confidence in the scoob from driving it for so long that I knew exactly what it was capable of in a left foot brake test situation. It's certainly not something I've been trying in the Clio!

Brake test the knobend the next time. When I had the scoob I was always a fan of just throwing on the fogs and coming off the gas - slows you down but not by braking - but they think you've hit the brakes. Or if they were still persistant then it was left foot brake then mash the throttle with the right. You can really cause someone issues with that one. If someone is going to tailgate me then they get that or a wee gesture.

I thought it was fairly common knowledge that it was Ben Collins anyway. Wikipedia has said it's him for at least a couple of years I think. Colour me completely unphased. Next you'll be telling me Darth Vader wasn't real......

What JW said!

If you're in Edinburgh on a Monday or Friday then come down to the Parliament. Tours are free and it's a very unique and interesting place to see.

Thoroughly disappointed no one knows a good father ted reference when they see it: Father Ted: I ordered some new stuff for the house, get rid of this old tat. Father Dougal: Did you phone Habitat? Father Ted: No, Habit Hat. Like Habitat it sells soft furnishings but also priest clothes. Father Dougal: Does it not get confused with Habitat? Father Ted: No, that's never happened, except when you just did it. Father Dougal: Anyway, what else did you order? Father Ted: Priest's socks, really black ones. Father Dougal: I read an article about priest's socks, that priest's socks are blacker than any other socks. Father Ted: That's right. Sometimes you see lay people wearing apparently black socks, but if you look closely, they are really very, very, very very dark blue. Father Dougal: That's true. I thought my Uncle Tommy was wearing black socks but when i look at them closely, they were just very, very, very, very, very, very dark blue. Father Ted: Never buy black socks in a normal shop. They will shaft you everytime.

You can only get black socks in Habit Hat. Everything else is just very very very very very dark blue.

If you've joined the Clydesdale one then PM me the email address you signed up with and I'll send through an invite.

This morning about 6:55. Was 2 behind in the anonymous french diesel

Aye it is. Wasn't when I was sorting out the work league though so doing the cb one instead.

Anyone playing this year? The BBC don't appear to have one, but the Clydesdale bank do - http://www.cbfootball.co.uk/score_selector/Default.aspx

Waved at me, but can't quite remember who belongs to what car!

That looks awesome Neil. 10 out of 10!

Think RDH said that Amos was on directly after him in the venue we were in. I imagine he'd be good. We're thinking of doing a few more later in the month. Might as well take advantage of it whilst it's on!
